Properties of Trigonometric Functions
- centre line: line in the middle between the maximum and minimum
- amplitude: vertical distance between the centre line and the maximum, or the centre line and the minimum
- period: horizontal distance between two repeated points (corresponding points)
Graphing the Sine Function
- represents the y-value of a point on the unit circle
Graphing the Cosine Function
- represents the x-value of a point on the unit circle
